Do we really need another film version of the festive Dr. Seuss story? Well probably, as the bloated 2000 Ron Howard adaptation with Jim Carrey was so bloody awful.
This one’s a CGI animated film from Illumination Entertainment, who previously adapted Dr. Seuss’s The Lorax with mixed results, and are best known for the Despicable Me flicks. Benedict Cumberbatch voices the Christmas-hating furry verdant person, but you’re actually better off with the 1966 Chuck Jones cartoon, which has the benefit of zipping through the slight story in just 26 minutes.
